In a homily at the Zagreb Cathedral the Pontiff called Stepinac “a fearless pastor […]]]> https://www.aoiusa.org/shades-of-grey-the-record-of-archbishop-stepinac/feed/ 12 https://www.aoiusa.org/obamakis-and-bidenopoulos/ https://www.aoiusa.org/obamakis-and-bidenopoulos/#comments Thu, 13 Nov 2008 15:33:33 +0000 https://www.aoiusa.org/?p=385 Deprecated: trim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in /home/aoiusa/public_html/wp-content/plugins/sexybookmarks/public.php on line 388
